Vintage M&M 66 Vanetten, 1/2oz copper fishing spoon #24159

Stamped clearly into the metal surface, the "M&M 66 VAN ETTEN N.Y." mark identifies this classic 1/2 oz (14 g) spoon as a piece of New York fishing history. Measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm) in length, the lure features a rich copper finish that has developed distinct surface characteristics over time. Its current state is rated at 4/5, showing some scattered spots of oxidation and minor surface wear that are common for a vintage piece of this age. This specimen, cataloged under product code 24159, is rigged with a robust barrel swivel attached via a brass split ring at the nose. The rear assembly consists of a sharp treble hook secured by a matching split ring, maintaining the original American-made hardware configuration. Its teardrop-shaped body is a standard for casting or trolling in various freshwater conditions.
